Building safety tips

【Learn more about slope safety to get prepared for the stormy weather】

A storm may come out of a clear blue sky. Worry about a landslide as there are slopes near your home?  This is why Ah Build immediately contacted an expert on slope safety from Geo Channel of the Civil Engineering and Development Department to learn more about slope safety so that you all can take precautionary measures and get well prepared before the storm.  Let’s check out some common tell-tale signs of a landslide:

 

1        New large cracks or ground subsidence on slopes

2        Mud, rocks, fragments of concrete/brick and uprooted vegetation, falling from slopes

3        Sudden change of colour of water flowing from slopes

 

Private owners are responsible for maintenance of private slopes. Remember to have routine maintenance inspection conducted at least once every year, and after every rainstorm!
